The LEGO Lamborghini Countach is said to have its work cut out for it

The LEGO 10337 Lamborghini Countach entry has its work cut out for it before it even hits the shelves, thanks to a cool version of the car already available if you know where to look…

It’s said to hit shelves July 1 for $179.99 (sec itavixbrix via Brick Clicker), the 10337 Lamborghini Countach is said to be the next addition to the growing LEGO ICONS garage. This means it will come in the same scale as the 10265 Ford Mustang, 10321 Corvette, and so on. But the famous 1970s car with its wedge-shaped body can already be made in LEGO at that size. All you need is a 10295 Porsche 911 replica.

If you were to try some kind of site-wide analysis of Rebrickable, you might find that the majority of the rebrickable models hosted through the LEGO fan site are cars. Whether it’s in the eight dimensions of the Speed ​​Championship or the larger Creators/ICONS Expert Levels, car enthusiasts have no shortage of custom designs or alternatives to fill their LEGO garages. And among these there are A beautiful account of Firas Abu-Jaber’s Lamborghini.

Designed and built entirely from components included in the 10295 Porsche 911, this is one of the greatest and most accessible alternatives anywhere, well, anywhere. All you need to do is get yourself a copy of the 2021 LEGO ICONS roadster and download the Countach instructions from Rebrickable, and you’re good to go. You can check out our demo model for a closer look at how it works, but suffice it to say that there are only a couple of areas where it would help.

Otherwise, it’s amazing how Porsche parts can be converted into a Countach, and that means that the LEGO Group’s official model – if it exists as a rumor – is already facing an uphill battle. You might think that an official set could benefit from new parts or a repaint to improve the details and smooth the lines, but it’s actually hard to find many areas of Firas’ design that need significant improvement.

Of course, the price difference between the 10295 Porsche 911 and the 10337 Lamborghini Countach works in favor of the new set: the Lambo is said to be only $10 more expensive than the Porsche, so when you consider the cost of Firas orders, many people will shoot the official model anyway. But if you’ve already built Firas’ Countach or have a replica Porsche 10295 911 lying around, you might find it hard to justify spending the money on a version that might be slightly better than this particular model.

We’ll know for sure — and hopefully be able to compare the two — if and when LEGO Group pulls the curtain on the 10337 Lamborghini Countach. Until that happens, keep an eye out for all the details about this allegedly unconfirmed set…

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, then as a LEGO fan, but we all know that’s not the case. Journalism runs through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood, the kind that will inevitably one day lead to a crisis performance. It’s like smoking, only worse. Fortunately, until then, I can write about LEGO.
